  2. <P>
  3. The <b>File view</b> enables you to display detailed information
  4. about a file, and to work on that file.
  5. You get to the File view by
  6. clicking  the file <i>name</i> portion of any of
  7. the files listed in the <a href="pathbrowser?help">Tree view</a>.
  8. You can also get to the File view
  9. by clicking  any of the file links list in the
  10. <a href="describe?help">Changelist Description</a> page,
  11. the
  12. <a href="submit?help">Submit Changelist</a> page, or the
  13. <a href="editpending?help">Pending Changelist</a> page.
  14. (If you are using P4Web in 
  15. <a href="browseonly?help">Viewer mode</a>,
  16. some of the information,
  17. links and menu items described here won't be visible to you.)
  18. <p>
  19. The current file's
  20. full depot path and name appear below the control panel.
  21. Each component of the path is a link to a directory
  22. level in the <a href="pathbrowser?help">Tree view</A>.
  23.  
  24. <p> Detailed state information follows the current file heading:

  36.         a browser link to it. If you click on this link, your browser  opens 
  37.         the workspace file, allowing you to view work in progress. The file must 
  38.         be local to the machine running the browser. Some browsers do not support 
  39.         this functionality. 
  40.       <p> Additional state information is displayed if your workspace file needs to 
  41.         be <a href="sync?help">synced</a>, if you and/or anyone else has the file

# Change User Description Committed
#1 12234 Matt Attaway Rejigger P4Web project in preparation for official sunsetting

The bin directory contain...s the last official builds of P4Web from the
Perforce download site. P4Web is soon to be completely sunsetted; these
builds are here for folks who don't want to build their own.

To better handle the archived builds the source code has been moved into
a separate src directory. «		 10 years ago
